about

The third of 3 loosely connected songs about the conditions that lead to making facism seem rational - the constant hunger for war profits that fuels so many modern economies

lyrics

No regard for the little things
It's out the window with compassion
Corporations join the club of little kings
Buy and sell distraction.

I can hear the cannons cry
Is it our turn to run and hide?
History writes you like a little prize
Takes away your thin disguise.

From sepulchre to autograph
Blackshirts back in fashion
Whisper nothing to the polygraph
It's all about distraction.

I can hear the cannons cry
Is it our turn to run and hide?
History writes you like a little prize
Takes apart your thin disguise.

I can hear the cannons cry
It's your turn to run and hide
Burn the ledgers and the passers-by
Life and price and cost and fear to die.
